This game is AWESOME (but somewhat short) but what makes up for it are the co-op spec ops mode and the multiplayer itself. There are still no dedicated servers but the thing to take all power away from one host is now host migration. Some people don't like it but i do because instead of the host leaving the game bringing the whole thing down it goes to someone else but it does have a drawback. Such as the game being brought down due to the new hosts connection taking too much time to collect the data info and build it back up resuming the match. Although there are times that the host has a terrible connection and makes everyone lag but this game is better made then the first so have at it!!!!
What's great about it: Campaign, Spec ops and multiplayer

When I got this game the first thing I did was play the campaign which was AMAZING!!! But at the multiplayer gate I faced waiting times exceeding 5 min. or more only to be thrown into a random map that was either over or ended before it started. Lack of dedicated servers is the problem here and I think this game is better just for the single-player campaign but for multiplayer try Battlefield or Modern Warfare 2 cuz this game's multiplayer is just HORRIBLE!!!! Also beware of infinitely respawning enemies that come at you until you move....but other than that the graphics are decent.
What's great about it: The Single Player Campaign
What's not so great: The Dedicated Server(less) multiplayer
